Your New Tax Mackinac: Land Of BURGOS, Spain (UPI)-A year-end act of clemency has averted both a domestic explosion and a crisis in Spain's international relations. But six Basque nationalists saved from execution vowed today to continue seeking "revolution or death." Generalissimo Francisco Franco Wednesday commuted to 30 years in prison the death sentences ordered by a court- martial against the six Basques in what he described as an action demonstrating the strength of his 31-year-old regime. The new sentences are not subject to amnesty. Workers in the Basque provinces of northern Spain who had been on strike a few hours earlier danced in the streets to c.elebrate the commutations.

LANSING (UPI)-Gov. William G. Milliken Wednesday signed into law a bill which he said will help Michigan preserve its environment for generations to come. The bill, called the Great Lakes Shorelands Protection Act, requires the state to determine which Great Lakes areas are in critical need of erosion through intensive engineering and environmental studies. "The adoption of this highly significant legislation marks an- other step in Michigan's unequaled efforts to protect its environment for generations to come," Milliken said.

"This legislation will enable our state to move directly toward the preservation of those lands bordering the Great Lakes which are in very great danger of being lost to us and to those who follow us." The new law authorizes state agencies to study both ecological and aesthetic threats to the four Great Lakes shores bordering Michigan, to devise solutions and to assume full responsibility if local governments fail to act on the state's recommendations. Specifically, the act sets up two steps to identify "high risk" areas and to take extra precautions to halt unwise commercial exploitation. These are: shoreline studies by the State Water Resources Commission to determine which areas are in danger of erosion damage and to suggest appropriate local action to correct the danger. studies by the State Natural Resources Department to determine which areas are in need of tighter zoning regulations to protect threatened wildlife. Under the procedure, which takes effect in March 1972, the state has the right to set zoning regulations aimed at blocking harmful commercial development of a shoreline area if it perceives an ecological threat Although local governments will be handed the task of carrying out the state's zoning guidelines with the help of federal funds, the state could take over completely if they fail to comply within three years.

Total cost of the program to the state has been estimated at $30,000. Gosh How Did This Politician Save $800,000 In Shoe Boxes?
